Description

This is a free course to help you save time and money when creating your online courses. Learn from my mistakes. Creating an online course is easier than you think; in this course I will humbly teach you how to work smarter (not harder) by discussing 40 tips/best practices I have learned the hard way teaching online over the past 12 months.

Topics we will cover include:

Technology to use to make your online courses

What should you teach?

Structure of your courses

Delivery (how you present/teach)

Promoting your course

Customer/student communications (the customer is always right)

Legal issues (protect your intellectual property)

What to do if your course isn’t selling

The easiest way ever to write a book version of your course!

And much more...

I will be making an annual free course like this one every November that discusses solutions to problems I encountered during my year of creating courses so that you won't have the same issues that I have had (and therefore you can work smarter and not harder).

Thanks!
Chris

I love the way Chris humbly takes glory from himself despite his success on Udemy and can show others doing better than him and highlight their strengths. This course was just simple and engaging, the only thing which was missing for me was video editing for Windows users as I use the Windows platform but otherwise this course is definitely worth a buck!
